Macquarie University Sport and Aquatic Centre

My favourite pool - and I've tried many! The water is clean and clear and the pool isn't crowded at all, if you go at the right times - you might even get a lane to yourself! The temperature of the water is just right - I recently went at night (in May, so late autumn) and the outdoor pool was still great. They also have deck chairs, which are great in the summer for a lazy arvo by the pool. Good showers and lockers, although the upstairs ladies toilets always smell pretty bad.

One of the best pools I’ve ever been. Clear and clean water, good swim etiquette, always almost empty, I’ve never seen more than three people in one of the eight, 50m lanes. Unfortunately, it's a little bit too warm (27°C.) and the time table can change from week to week. So check it out online, before you go there.
